In the fourth annual report on the opera
tions Of the Philadelphia water works, sub
mitted by Col. Ludlow, then chief engineer,
to the select and common councils Of that
city, occurs this paragraph: "The news
papers OF city are charged with great
powers for good or evil, and In proportion
10 the intelligence and sincerity of their
public discussion OF men and measures is
their usefulness to the community devel-
oped. 1t will be through their teaching
alone that the public can be brought to feel
that the city corporation is a business or
ganizatlon like any other; that every resi-
dent and taxpayer is one OF its members,
and that It's affairs, closely affecting the
domestic and business interests OF every
citizen, must be managed iu the public be.

District commissioner he seems to have
changed his opinion, not only as to the use
fulness Of newspapers, but the rights OF

WE are pleased to note the success of
Washington company engaged In the good
work OF securing proper transportation for
live stock which not only prevents cruelty
to the animal, but, at the same time, gives
to the people Of the country better aud
healthier article of food. The success OF
the shellabarger Live Stock Car Company
is now assured, as Mr.. w. W. Heron, secre
tary OF the company, has just returned from
Pittsburg, Pa, aud informs US that salts
factory contract has been made by the
shellabarger Live Stock Car Company with
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company for the
use Of the shellabarger patent fixtures an1
appliances on all the lines embraced in the
Pennsylvania system. This makes it GER
tain that the car company Is arand suc
cess. The Endorsement by the great Penn
sylyania Railroad Company, after careful
examination aud complete tests OF the Ia
ventions Of the Shellablrgcr company,
renders 1t certain that all the other great
cattle transporting railroad companies
will at once adopt it.

SECOND COMPTROLLER BUTLER follows
the lead Of his predecessor, Mr.. Maynard,
and recommends the passage Of a Limitation
law to bar claims against the government.
The right Of petition is one of those for the
denial of which our forefathers rebelled,
and until Mr.. Butler can secure an amend
ment striking Off the last clause Of the first
amendment to the constitution Of the
United States 1t will be useless for him to
recommend a Limitation law, or for Con-
gress to pass one. The comptroller might
with propriety recommend the passage OF
such laws as would secure the speedy
settlement and payment OF the debts the
United States owes to thousands Of Its
citizeps,

The Independent Presbyterian Church,
of Savannah, Ca, invited DR.. Bacon, q
noted Presbyterian divine, of Connecticut,
to preach one year on trial. The year has
expired and because DR.. Bacon, during the
past fall expressed some sentiments that
might suit In the latitude Of Connecti-
cut, and that agreed with those which
Christ preached, but did not suit the latl-
tude Of Georgia, the church, by a vote OF
1856 to 119 refused to employ DR.. Bacon any
longer. But 1t is hard to understand how
this refusal Of Savannah church to employ
q pastor, is ''unfortunate for Charleston"

The colored ministers from the various
Protestant churches In the District held a
meeting in the Metropolitan A. NJ. e.
Church yesterday to consider the police aud
health statistics and the moral condition
of the colored people Of the District.
Many ministers not being present owing
to the improper circulation OF the notice,
II was decided to hold another meeting
Monday, 21st instant, at the same place,
at II o'clock. Rev. 7. q. Stewart read a
communication from Mr.. j. w. Cromwell,
editor OF the Peoples Advocate, of this city,
calling attention OF the body to the selec-
ton Of the noted "Mary Hall" building,
Fourand.a half street and Maryland ave-
nue. southwest, by the trustees OF the pub.
lie schools to be used as public school
for colored children. Speeches denounc.
ing this selection as an outrage upon the
colored people of the District were freely
INDUCED in by Revs. Stewart, Dyson,
Moore, q. W. Lee, Walker, and others.
A committee Of five was appointed to
draw up resolution, and the ministers
are TO use their influence generally with
the colored trustees Of the public ;schools
wait on the commissioners and urge theiI
protestatlons on that body to prevent the
appropriation Of this building for the pur.
poses contemplated. The committee con

WASHINGTON THE PLACE.
The National convention should be
Held at the National Capital.


philadelphia Item.
The proposition has been made to hold
the national Republican convention in
Washington. This is an excellent sugges-
tlon. Washington is now a large and Inn
poelpg city. When we fret visited it-in
1s35-under the blighting influence OF
slavery, It was wretched. swampy,
tumble down, dirty, stupid, uninteresting
place.
A half century has sufficed to make II
the most interesting city on the American
continent. II boasts good newspapers,
good hotels, good churches, good school.
houses, good society, good theaters, mag.
nifcent streets, unbounded hospitality, and
excellent health.
Washington found good friends In Sena-
tor Summer, Gen. Grant, Senator Cameron,
Senator Conkling, Gov. Cooke, and Gov.
Shepherd. These gentlemen omitted no op.
poriunity to embellish and improve the
capital, and, as II is beautiful and inviting
city, we hope that the next national con.
vention win be held there.
Washington is now but three hours from
Philadelphia, and for that reason IL Is well
adapted FOR the great national convention.

Counting Their Chickens Cautious,


One Of Mr.. Cleyeland's inoffensive par
tisans who left the public service 10 prac-
tice unpernicious activity int BE New York
campaign has given away little converse
tion between Senator Voorhees, and Gov
Hill, which is In the nature Of confessional
1t was just before the election. The sena-
tor asked the governor, What Of the pros
pect. The answer was: "Oh, we shall carry
the state, but 1t will cost us the big
gest effort we ever put forth in an off year"
SWELL" said the senator, observing lack
of enthusiasm on the part of the governor.
"don't that insure us the state and the
presidency next Year," The governor
shook his head, replying: "We've goJ
to fight for 1t. The fact is, sew
eral local incidents In New York city are
helping us now. VIII they next yearG The
man we fear in New York is Blaine. Among
the people from whom we gain this
year I'm afraid he has lost nc
strength ''But Blaine will not
run" said the senator. Although once iu
a fight he is hot contestant, he is timid t.
enter, and II New York speaks emphatically
he will not dare to enter" Gov. Hill ex
pressed doubt Of that opinion, aud thought
Blaine would be forced to run. "But,'
said the senator, "the man We fear most IL
the west is Harrison, and next to him For
aker. Equally good fighters with Blaine
they are full stronger In Ohio and Indiana "
Then the two wrestled anxlously with tn,
conu6drum, "Suppose the Republicans
should place upon their ticket their strong
est man for New York aud their stronges
man for Ohio and Indiana-what them"
Some Of the Democratic statesmen who
have been shooting Off oral pyrotechnic
over the result in New York may possibl
extract moral from this little dialogue.
